measure

· Personal protective equipment

· General protective and hygienic measures:
Keep away from foodstuffs, beverages and feed.
Immediately remove all soiled and contaminated clothing
Wash hands before breaks and at the end of work.
Store protective clothing separately.
Avoid contact with the eyes and skin.

· Respiratory protection:
In case of brief exposure or low pollution use respiratory filter device. In case of intensive or longer exposure
use self-contained respiratory protective device.

· Protection of hands:

Protective gloves

The glove material has to be impermeable and resistant to the product/ the substance/ the preparation.
Due to missing tests no recommendation to the glove material can be given for the product/ the preparation/
the chemical mixture.
Selection of the glove material on consideration of the penetration times, rates of diffusion and the
degradation

· Material of gloves:
The selection of the suitable gloves does not only depend on the material, but also on further marks of quality
and varies from manufacturer to manufacturer. As the product is a preparation of several substances, the

(Contd. on page 5)

application.

· Penetration time of glove material:
The exact break through time has to be found out by the manufacturer of the protective gloves and has to be
observed.

· Eye protection:

· Recommended restriction of use
7440-02-0 Nickel

1. Shall not be used:
(a) in any post assemblies which are inserted into pierced ears and other pierced parts of the human body
unless the rate of nickel release from such post assemblies is less than 0,2 Ag/cm 2 /week (migration limit);
(b) in articles intended to come into direct and prolonged contact with the skin such as:

- earrings,

- necklaces, bracelets and chains, anklets, finger rings,

- wrist-watch cases, watch straps and tighteners,

- rivet buttons, tighteners, rivets, zippers and metal marks, when these are used in garments,
if the rate of nickel release from the parts of these articles coming into direct and prolonged contact with the
skin is greater than 0,5 Ag/cm 2 / week.
(c) in articles referred to in point (b) where these have a non-nickel coating unless such coating is sufficient
to ensure that the rate of nickel release from those parts of such articles coming into direct and prolonged
contact with the skin will not exceed 0,5 Ag/cm 2 / week for a period of at least two years of normal use of the
article.

2. Articles which are the subject of paragraph 1 shall not be placed on the market unless they conform to the
requirements set out in that paragraph.

3. The standards adopted by the European Committee for Standardisation (CEN) shall be used as the test
